How to solve catalytic converter which get melting?

It's usual to happen and you need to know how to solve catalytic converter which get melting?

One of the major diseases of catalytic converter  ( CC ) have great influence on the performance of the engine when the catalyst is functioning as it melted and clogged filter . When compressed , the engine exhaust gas can not flow properly causing back pressure . The next result , engine power output so lousy aka lackluster . Such conditions often cause the driver presses the accelerator pedal getting deeper. As a result, fuel consumption is so wasteful !

maintenance
In the first stage when CC is used in diesel engines in Indonesia (2007-2008) , the driver often complained that , at a certain distance , lousy engine power output . The APM technicians generally proposed , to solve it , the vehicle must be accelerated to a maximum rotation as far as 1 km to push dirt in CC . On the other hand , they do not analyze the real causal factors , for example , fuel quality , settings , and conditions of the engine components .

Various cases in the world , including the analysis of the producer company , shows that the CC incompressible because the machine works with the fuel mixture is too rich . As a result , many hydrocarbons ( HC ) or unburned fuel is in the catalyst . In this condition , the higher the temperature of the catalyst . If continued , the catalyst may melt . The melt clog tiny holes that serves as a catalyst filter .

Fuel mixture is too rich can also occur due to problems in the injector , or the oxygen sensor , or also due to incorrect ignition ( petrol engine specifically ) . Oxygen sensor plays an important role in this regard . Because these sensors constantly monitor the composition of the exhaust gas oxygen produced ( to determine the composition of the mixture ) , and then sent to the engine computer . Next, set the engine computer , whether to reduce the dose of the amount of fuel that is sprayed or add to it ( based on the old injector opening ) . Therefore, it is important to maintain and inspect the condition of the sensor .

Actually , the problem of clogged CC rather rare today because gasoline is used no longer contain lead or lead ( Pb ) . If anything , the numbers are very small. Alternatively, the substance that makes for other materials , such as fuel additives . Therefore, do not use any additives .

another possibility
Another CC damage is partly because his house cracked ( hit a rock ) , mounting bolt is not good, or poor-quality home materials ( cracks and change shape when high heat ) . Conditions that can damage engine components CC include piston rings wear out ( the oil flow to the combustion chamber ) and the results are less good injector spray ( low pressure at the injector or fuel pump ) .

Electrode spark plugs are dirty or have been eroded also lead to sub-optimal combustion , HC or more leaves . Alternatively, the exhaust gas recirculation valve ( EGR ) is not working properly , or engine valve seals , cylinder head gaskets , and broken suction channel .

The cylinder head is warped with the most common indication , still easy to " fever " aka overheat , also causing CC can not work effectively . Even then , if the use of glue or mechanical seals made ​​from Teflon and silicone when opening the machine and put it back ( when disassembled ) , then it will bring up a new terror , not only for CC , but also the oxygen sensor !
